There might be more drama to auto bailout saga

The dominating story today would be the auto bailout failure. But there might be more drama and emergency actions before market opens. So the pre market tumble may not play out as anticipated. It will be interesting day to watch.

Dec. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Stocks tumbled around the world and the dollar slumped after the Senate rejected a bailout for American automakers, threatening to deepen the global recession. Treasuries rallied and yields fell to record lows.

GM plunged 28 percent in Germany, while Honda Motor Co. and Daimler AG sank more than 6 percent. The dollar fell to a 13-year low against the yen, while the cost of protecting corporate bonds against default soared. Metals and crude oil slumped.
“The markets are still guided by fear,” said Robert Drijkoningen, The Hague-based head of the multi-asset group at ING Investment Management, which has $488 billion under management. “The markets are in a very dire situation and are in a very risk- averse situation. The short-term is bleak,” he said on Bloomberg Television.

ClarkW said...: Its a sad but true reality - but the US auto industry brought this on itself and there is no reason why American taxpayers should save it. If a small store is selling out dated products, it is its own fault for having an out dated business plan and not watching the market. The big 3 in the US have been selling cars of lower quality and high fuel consumption in a market that calls for the total opposite. If we want to point fingers dont point them at Senate for not saving the big 3, point them at the greedy Directors of these companies for running an out of date business plan and just try to make a quick and easy dollar.; Dec 12, 2008, 7:07:00 AM
